Jack Switzer Memorial Research Workshops: Glenbow and JHSSA Archives

We will be holding a series of 3 workshops this winter in partnership with the Glenbow Archives. The workshops are free, but have limited enrolment, so we will be registering participants on a first come, first serve basis. If necessary, we will keep a waiting list in case of cancellations. People can register for any or all of the workshops; they each cover a separate topic and can stand alone.

All workshops run from 10:30 am to 12:00 pm. For Part One and Two, people are invited to stay for the afternoon to make use of the Glenbow Archives, which will remain open after the programs.

Part One: Glenbow Archives: January 8, 2013

This workshop will focus on Jewish Glenbow resources such as archives donated by various Jewish institutions and individuals such as Sheldon Chumir and A.I. Shumiatcher.

Part Two: Glenbow Archives: January 22, 2013

This workshop will look at Glenbow sources for family history and genealogy research, such as directories, maps, yearbooks and clipping files.

Part Three: JHSSA Archives (Temple Office, Calgary JCC): February 5, 2013

Led by our archivist, Agi Romer Segal, This workshop will explore the resources available through the JHSSA.
